8/17 News Conference/News updates for worker bees

[tybee204]

Dan Abrams seems much more skeptical today about the suspect. I think he may a little miffed about all the false leaks yesterday that were reported on MSNBC.

Yeah, I noticed that as soon as the "drugged & had sex" report came out.

Thank you everyone!

and the no DNA report. MSNBC was one reporting it yesterday

 

[Peter Hamilton]

wow--what a pathetic and useless press conference that was---only thing we learned was they might know in a few days just when Karr might be transported back to the states

Colorado laws preclude the D.A. from discussing DNA results until after charges have been brought.

"There is much more work to be done now that the suspect is in custody."

Another comment about not wanting the investigation to be in the public eye but it wasn't possible.

She made the comment about the timing of arrests "in a generic sense". That they try to "substantially" complete an investigation before making an arrest but sometimes certain circumstances make an arrest necessary "before an investigation is complete. The primary reason for that is public safety. The secondary reason is fear of flight." Said she was not commenting on the particular nature of this case.

Said she was going to release her statement so it should be out there somewhere.

P.S. Are we just killing the server or is there something wrong with it?

Even Trip de Muth sounds disappointed at best (on msnbc now).

Beckner's statement is guarded...rightly so!

Why they couldn't have brought him back here on the CA charges is beyond my understanding at this point.

 

[cricket]

yeah thats what i heard 'no charges' so the first degree murder charge is BS

From what I understand, he has been arrested for first degree murder, kidnapping, etc. I don't think he can be charged until he is in the US - because that would have to happen in a US court.

I think it's just a matter of semantics.

 

[Old Broad]

While I want to find out all the details, I can also understand that some information is going to have to be kept under wraps. IMO I do not believe they would have gone to all the trouble to go after this guy if they didn't have solid proof. This is not something that's been investigated for a few weeks but quite a long time. It's been almost 10 years since we've wanted answers to who killed JonBenet, I can wait a bit longer to find out the real story. The important thing is that justice be served and a dangerous person taken off the streets.
I'll admit to wanting very much this man to be guilty! I want the responsible person to stand trial and I want it proven without a doubt her parents had nothing to do with it because as horrible as it is JonBenet suffered and was killed, it would be even worse for her if it was by the hands of anyone in her family!

I think the News breaking yesterday forced their hand. It appears their only evidence is his emails to the documentory guy.

that's exactly what it appeared to me also.....

If you are interested, I have/am posting the Boulder DA press releases as they arive (click here). Also, since there appears to be some confusion with regard to Karr alleging he drugged/raped JonBenet, as well as references to the ransom note, I have added PDFs of the original autopsy report, ramsom note, and the two search warrants (colorado & michigan), to my document management system (click here).

Hth!
